The North Texas Laryngectomy SocietySee below for our current calendar of events!

NTLS is the largest 501(c) non-profit foundation of its kind in Texas. Initially founded to help support laryngectomee survivorship, it has quickly grown and evolved to now serve and benefit all those affected by Head & Neck Cancer.

NTLS is able to supply patients and families with emotional and financial support for needs not otherwise met through insurance or otherwise. Through support by our generous donors, we have more recently been able to stock a variety of supplies for immediate delivery on an as-needed basis!

Monthly meetings offering emotional and educational support for the LARYNGECTOMY are typically held on the first Friday of the month @ 2pm, at the Center for Cancer & Blood Disorders in the 1st floor meeting room: 800 W Magnolia, Fort Worth TX 76104, but refer to the website for specific dates.

GENERAL HEAD & NECK CANCER support group meetings will be held at the office on Pennsylvania Ave. Meeting will be announced on the website (see homepage for details each month). In some cases, an RSVP is required for the social events so be sure to check the website for details!

The latest information and activities of NTLS can be found on this site as well as information regarding past and future meetings, so check in often to stay updated!
